Tati Kalveks: Liberation
Written by Richmond - Hunter
‘Liberation
This one is for the women out there who say over and over again that they aren’t feminists, but still believe in equal rights. Feminism is not about wanting to get rid of all the men and take over. Feminism is about the right to not be raped, and the right to earn equal pay, and the right to walk around in the street without a chaperone. The right to vote. All the stuff that guys get, basically.
And while I’m on the subject, anyone who thinks a woman is ‘asking for it’ if she gets raped after wearing a short skirt on a night out is just blind to common sense. Bodycon dresses may make a statement, but that statement is less “I’m in the mood to be violently assaulted tonight!” and more “I love my body [and don’t want it to be hurt, or killed]”.’
